24 Hour Coin Laundry

Our washer recently developed 99 problems, so we went here…
The washers we used worked well and were decently priced. The 24 hour openness is definitely a huge draw.
The place could use a good deep clean. There were dryer sheets all over the floor, I saw a spider next up in the corner of the ceiling, and sticky foot prints all willy nilly. The bathroom looked so scary not even my HUSBAND wanted to use it.
The dryers… I saw them kick open from tumbling not just for us, but for other patrons as well. The kicker is that the timer does not stop when the door is open, so you’d better rush over there to amend it before you lose a bunch of time! No good.
They have lots of laundry carts and tables, so no problem nabbing, sorting, and folding did we encounter.
A definite «MEH» for this joint.

I’m not one of the lucky ones who have an in-​home laundromat, so I have to drive and tote loads and loads of laundry to a decent place where I feel my clothes will be clean and I feel safe.
I came upon this one haphazardly when I was short on time to travel across the way to the one I was going to before I moved away from Merrill Rd. I was on my way from the beaches after picking up my daughter’s from gym camp, so I really just needed somewhere fast.
I remembered this was here because I frequently go to the nail salon next door. It is also conveniently located across from Brumos Mercedes. And Grinders is right at the end of the strip mall so you can get some food while your stuff washes or dries. How convenient!
My first visit was not that busy. I used the biggest washers they had to wash all my clothes. I could stuff them pretty well. The water pressure seemed great and when I took my clothes out they smelled clean and were rinsed very well. Sometimes you’ll get the unfortunate situation where your clothes will not have been rinsed well and they’re still dripping. No bueno. The biggest washers are $ 6.75, $ 5 for the next size down and then $ 3.75 for the smaller washers.
When it came to the dryers I was pleasantly surprised because I didn’t have to spend all my money just to dry the clothes for more than an hour. These are some great dryers. I only had to spend maybe 1.50 on my regular clothes and about 1.75 on jeans and whites (socks always tend to take longer to dry).
There are 4 tables for folding lined against the wall. A good amount of carts so you’re not fighting for them at any given moment (at least in my experience). They have a tv near the front that usually plays old tv shows. Two change machines that take $ 1, $ 5, $ 10 & $ 20 bills located at the front and back of the business. They have a semi decent bathroom, with no hot water. There is also a camera located at the front of the premises to help keep customers safe.
This laundromat is 24 hours so it is definitely convenient at any TINE of day. Each time I’ve gone I’ve never really had an issue with washers or dryers. Never really that full or busy since I think people get the impression it is dirty or unsafe because it’s Arlington and its 24 hours.
I continue to come here each time because it works for me and my schedule and is not usually busy so I never have to fight oover getting the biggest washer.
